Toddler killed in road crash named as Harlow Edwards

A police investigation is taking place into the incident

A two-year-old girl who was killed after being struck by a car has been named as Harlow Edwards from Coupar Angus.

Harlow died on Thursday afternoon after two cars crashed into each other on the A94 Forfar Road in Coupar Angus.

Her six-year-old brother and 17-year-old sister are being treated in Dundee's Ninewells Hospital.

It is understood that the two cars collided at the junction with Larghan Park then hit the children.

Both of Harlow's siblings remain in a serious condition.

Police appeal

The 23-year-old male driver of the Ford Focus and the 34-year-old driver of the Citroen vehicle involved in the incident were not injured.

The A94 was closed in both directions while police investigations were carried out.

Police have appealed for witnesses to the incident, which happened at about 15:20, to contact them.

Sgt Rory Fairbairn said: "We'll obviously be investigating the full circumstances of the collision to see how it came about.

"I'd also appeal for any witnesses that were in the location at the time that may have seen a black Ford Focus driving towards Forfar from the Coupar Angus area to contact us on 101.

"(Anyone) who may have been overtaken by the black Ford Focus as well, if they could contact us... and we'll speak to them."

• Police previously said Harlow's brother was aged five.
